Diagnostic performance of noninvasive imaging modalities for localization of insulinoma: A meta-analysis

Insulinoma is the most common functional neuroendocrine tumor found only in the pancreas. The early detection of insulinoma is of importance. Studies comparing the performance of noninvasive modalities were limited by sample size and heterogeneity between studies. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of PET/CT, SPECT/CT, CT and MRI for the localization of insulinoma, and to provide evidence for clinical...
